General Chat Thread. (Discussion of the idea, not the actual thread.)

[Govinda]

I don't follow the concept of "There's no need" and "Spamming."

..Why not? Is it really that big of a deal?

Good luck with that. I genuinely mean it.

I've been trying to think of ways to combine my PS3 and my hilarious cat. So far I've designed a furry toaster, but it just looks obscene. Any ideas, community?

Well...the TFF chat revival and an in-site thread for general chatting doesn't seem to be as good as an idea as simply going through with IM chatting. It's less bothersome, equally as dramatic (yet pointless to argue with it since it's out-of-site), and it's a tad more liberal than the latter options.

The main trouble with it is that it's unofficial. And at times the chances of landing a chat are astronomically low.

Hey guys, I got a new PS3 today.

Then my cat did something really funny.

Stop. I know what cats can do to threads. It's not funny. NOT FUNNY...

What would Fuzz have to do with the TFF Chat? Unless of course you mean something other than the AIM one. Besides, if people like you, they will bring you to the MSN chat.

A purring George Foreman grill with cat ears and a tail?

I'll also say I wouldn't mind a 'general chat' type thread, but I think it should have some conditions on it or it'll likely turn into a spillage of the word games section. I'm thinking a minimum word count and maybe a rule against posts that are just one or two word 'I agrees' or whatever as those don't really add anything to the table and could be quite easily said through VMs or whatever.

All you need is someone who could plan such a thread and I sure as hell ain't volunteering.
